Pillsbury isn’t calling!

I am NOT a baker! And I have never claimed to be. In my family my sister and brother (Eric) are the bakers. I am the cook.

Case in point: today! I have been CRAVING some M&M cookies. I have held off making them for several weeks now so I wouldn’t gain 10 ponds of cookie weight before the holidays. Today I could wait no longer (but I should have).

As you can see below my cookies came out as pancakes with M&M’s stuck in. That is when they didn’t clump into a gooey ball. Just about the time this disaster is occuring Isaac wakes up from his 2.5 hour nap (after only an hour) and REFUSES to be comforted – by anything! He wasn’t even that happy when I was holding him.

Ssssooooo, I turned off the oven and settled into bed to try to pacify my apparently teething child. I am now trying to doctor the cookie batter back to life. At least I got a nap out of the whole ordeal! Oh yea, and the whole experienced cured me of my desire for M&M cookies – anyone want some M&M lumps?
